Oh no, seized hand brake

<< < (2/2)

suggs:
spray WD on the adjuster and leave to soak in, may free it up

other thing that could work is cut the cable and hammer the casing and rock the car back and forward, but will leave you with no handbrake.

cant you get the casing off though, are the 2 screws stuck?, could try with an impact driver. if you do have to smash the casing then a second hand one will only be a few quid from a breakers or off a forum member.

right pain though, mine does it every time i go off road.
